Qué nombre recibe la incapacidad de una población para reponerse después de un desastre
mixer [17]

Answer:

Vulnerabilidad.

Explanation:

El término vulnerabilidad es una extensión de los enfoques convencionales de la pobreza. Se reconoció que la pobreza por sí sola no puede describir y explicar adecuadamente los problemas de desarrollo y las crisis sociales en las naciones, especialmente cuando estos no surgen de cuestiones puramente económicas, sino también climatológicas o de otra índole. La vulnerabilidad no solo significa deficiencia y necesidades insatisfechas, sino una condición social que se caracteriza por inseguridad e indefensión ante eventos externos. Las personas y poblaciones vulnerables están expuestas a choques y factores estresantes y tienen dificultades para afrontarlos. La vulnerabilidad debe entenderse como un proceso dinámico. Las personas afectadas pueden ser o volverse vulnerables de manera diferente según la situación. Las fases individuales de este proceso de vulnerabilidad van desde la vulnerabilidad básica (fase de afrontamiento o arreglo) a través de varios pasos intermedios hasta una catástrofe existencial, que se caracteriza por un colapso de la seguridad vital y la dependencia total de los afectados de las medidas de ayuda externa. Una hambruna es un ejemplo de tal colapso.
